Lu Yuan nodded; this was exactly the effect he wanted.

Finally, his gaze turned to Lin Feng:

"Also, your slogan is no good!"

"Our slogans must be wolf-like and have a murderous aura."

Lin Feng was now confused:

"What kind of slogan would work?"

Lu Yuan shook his head. He didn't know. All he cared about was the effect. As for how to shout slogans, that was Lin Feng and Zhang Qiang's business.

After resolving things here, Lu Yuan planned to take Luo Qingcheng and Gong Yuehan back to do *that*.

After all, he and Luo Qingcheng had been separated for many days, and as for Gong Yuehan, they had just done *that* in the office that morning.

"Brother Yuan!"

Just then, Su Xiaorou returned, looking very unhappy.

"What's wrong? Did something not go well?"

Su Xiaorou recounted what had happened.

In fact, Lu Yuan had already anticipated this. He reached out and patted Su Xiaorou's head. In a sense, Lu Yuan loved Su Xiaorou the most.

Gong Yuehan and Lu Yuan didn't love each other, at least not at the beginning; it was just out of need.

Later, Lu Yuan also gave Gong Yuehan enough power.

Luo Qingcheng also took the initiative to approach him, and it involved too many family interests.

Only Su Xiaorou—from the moment they first met in the cave, Lu Yuan had developed a slight liking for her.

However, because she was Su Changchun's daughter, Lu Yuan was wary of her and even afraid.

Even so, Lu Yuan still thought of saving one for Su Xiaorou after obtaining the Storm Demon Eagle pet egg.

Even if they become enemies in the future, Lu Yuan still gave it to him.

Later, if it weren't for Su Xiaorou, if he didn't care about Su Xiaorou, Lu Yuan would have directly cleaved Su Changchun in two with a single blow.

Later, they met again in the secret realm. Su Xiaorou made such a great sacrifice to relieve Lu Yuan of the side effects caused by the Demon Dragon King's essence blood.

Being unable to get out of bed for a whole day and night would have killed an ordinary person.

All of this is why Lu Yuan loves Su Xiaorou more.

Su Xiaorou wasn't the prettiest; that title belonged to the Luo sisters, Luo Qingcheng and Luo Qingguo. However, Su Xiaorou was the most obedient.

He never refuted what Lu Yuan said, only obeyed him.

Unlike Luo Qingcheng, who has been influenced by her sister and occasionally teases Lu Yuan.

It's not that Luo Qingcheng is bad; on the contrary, she's very good.

Of the three women, Su Xiaorou truly sacrificed the most for him, and now she can't even go back to Wan Gang.

All of this is because of Lu Yuan, so a large part of this guilt stems from that.

"Everyone has their own choices. Some people only remember the harm others have done to them, but don't care about the harm they have done to others."

Everyone has their own ambitions and accepts their own destiny!

"You've done everything you could. You can't control his choice. You've worked hard, go and rest."

Su Xiaorou quickly agreed and then left.

“Brother Yuan, we still don’t have enough people. Such a big city, and only a little over ten thousand people…”

After Su Xiaorou left, Luo Qingcheng brought up the population problem in Taiping Town.

This is also a problem that has been giving Lu Yuan a headache.

The main problem was that his base developed too late, and the living people were all attracted away by the nearby settlements.

His 10,000-plus people were mainly brought by the Liu and Luo families.

Then there are the recruited soldiers and their families.

Of course, there were also some survivors from the surrounding area who chose to stay after the zombies and monsters were cleared out.

A small number of people even came here on their own from the Tai'an area.

After all, for some people, staying at the Tai'an base would mean starving to death sooner or later, so they might as well go out and try their luck.

As a result, many people came here.

Once they arrived here, they were reluctant to leave, since they could eat as long as they worked, and they were able to eat their fill.

Having figured all this out, Lu Yuan had a solution:

"In that case, Yuehan, go to the gathering place in Tai'an for me tomorrow."

"Explain the importance and key points, and get them to abandon that place and come here to fight the disaster together."

Gong Yuehan nodded:

"That's not a big problem, but will these people be willing to come?"

Lu Yuan smiled:

"Whether they come or not is not important. What is important is to find a way to spread the news of our base in the Tai'an gathering area."

“I believe a large number of poor people will be willing to come, and that is my real purpose.”

You know what I mean, right?

Gong Yuehan's eyes lit up; she understood instantly!

Lu Yuan meant that the news that there was food and drink here, as well as a granary, should be spread throughout the Tai'an settlement.

People from the slums would definitely want to come.

Most importantly, when these people arrive, the other side will not only not stop them, but will even line the streets to see them off.

For Lu Yuan, the population is a treasure, but for the Tai'an settlement, it is a burden.

"Now you understand!"

"Next, we need to set up a team to collect supplies. Also, we can take the message to the Wan Gang settlement."

"But don't let Xiaorou know about this, I'm afraid of her..."

Lu Yuan didn't say anything more; he believed Gong Yuehan understood.

"Um, it's getting dark, we..."

Gong Yuehan understood what Lu Yuan wanted to do. The main problem was that she was still a bit shaken from the ordeal that morning.

So he made an excuse and slipped away.

On the way back, Su Xiaorou and Lu Yuan were also exhausted in the sky, plus the unpleasantness with Su Changchun.

Besides, she was in a bad mood and went to rest, leaving only Luo Qingcheng.

"Brother Yuan, I need to discuss something with you. The woman who could topple kingdoms..."

Before Luo Qingcheng could finish speaking, Lu Yuan slapped her on the butt.

"Don't make excuses. Go back and get clean, then wait for me. I'm going to find Liu Wuqing first; he seems to have something to tell me."

"Go quickly!"

Luo Qingcheng originally wanted to suggest that Luo Qingguo come tonight, but Lu Yuan ran away immediately.

It seems we have no choice but to use another method.

Lu Yuan found Liu Wuqing, and the two returned to the office.

"Tell me, what's the situation at the base?"

Lu Yuan arrived directly.

"Nothing major, it's just that a few people from the Luo family were a bit restless before."

"But I've already taken care of it, and then I spoke with Luo Tianyang in my personal capacity."

Lu Yuan had heard Gong Yuehan mention this matter before.

"Hmm, very well done!"

"Remember this: your purpose is to monitor the base. You are the only one responsible. Anyone with malicious intent will be executed once evidence is gathered!"

"As I said before, sometimes you have to take the blame, but don't worry, taking the blame and actual punishment are two different things."

Liu Wuqing nodded. He was truly unafraid to take the blame, and he believed that Lu Yuan would keep his word.

After all, the two had spent quite a bit of time together, and Liu Wuqing had tested Lu Yuan's character when they traveled from the other world to the outside.

Therefore, he trusted Lu Yuan.

"That's enough. If there's nothing else, then I'll..."

Liu Wuqing prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute!"
